I have been a customer of this pastry shop for about 7 years, and I have always been completely satisfied with the quality and variety of the pastries here. My favorite pastries are Nazook, Danish, and Napoleon. I bought some pastries from the shop again yesterday, and I simply wanted to express my sincere gratitude to all the staff and the owner for welcoming us customers with such kindness and a warm smile throughout all these years. I truly appreciate your wonderful service and hospitality. May God bless your business with continued success and prosperity. read more

Drove by a few times before we decided to check it out. Glad we did. Tiny little bakery, with lots of Armenian-style pastries. Easy to find something for every kind of sweet tooth: chocolate cakes, cream puffs, tiramisu, cookies, sweet breads, etc. Prices are nicely priced. We got a variety and were happy with everything. I liked seeing that trays of items were completely sold out. Must be good! Service is not the friendliest. It would be better if they got rid of all that junk plastic candy mess on the top of the displays. It makes the small space feel smaller, it pulls away from all the lovely pastries, and the women behind the counter can't even see over it when they ask you what you want. read more

We were headed back to the West Valley to take our Sweet Granddaughter home after spending the afternoon / early evening at Descanso Gardens. Her mother texted asking if we could bring pastries. It was after 6 p.m., so I turned to trusty Yelp to see what might still be open between Montrose and our destination. This bakery came up, so we stopped in to give it a try. One gentleman was minding both the bakery and the liquor store next door. It wasn't that busy at either place, but he did have to run between the two. He let us know that he'd be right with us, so we had time to look around. The baked goods cases were about half full at 7:00 at night. The man helping us didn't really know anything about the fillings of some of the items that weren't self-explanatory. He got our selections packed up nicely, but it would have been helpful to be able to get more info about some of the cakes/pastries. SG (age 5) boldly chose a cream puff for herself. I wasn't sure if she would like it, but once we got to her house she happily scarfed down half of it, saving the other half for the next day. Dear Hubby and I picked several layers cake pieces, and I added two chocolate-filled cookies. He went for a cannoli, of which they had several options of fillings. I think our daughter and son-in-law made out the best, as we weren't sure what they would like so we got them some Black & White cake, honey cake, espresso cake, and some of the chocolate-filled cookies. It was a dessert-tasting feast to wind up the weekend when we arrived at their place. read more

This was a random stop, and glad we did. The shop is small but they had a good selection. You can tell from the pictures the pastries are beautiful and they taste how they look. The cashier recommended the Bird Milk over a Honey. The Bird Milk was creamy light and delicious. My favorite was the Nutella pastry, crispy, sweet and just perfect. I will bookmark this place and be sure to stop next time I am out that way. read more

I hadn't been to this place for several years and decided to stop by in passing. I wanted to get Nazooks but after the ingredients I decided not. It has soybean oil, palm oil and so many random ingredients. Definitely not what I remember them to be. Why make them so unhealthy using bad oils. I decided to get the Poncheek which the person told me was custard. One I ate it at home it was stale and old tasting which maybe because it was at 5pm but it also did not have custard. It barely had a strange white cream thing that was equal to barely a teaspoon. Overall it did not taste that good, was not fresh and immediately after having it I felt a slight heartburn. Maybe ownership has changed or maybe the shop now opts for low quality ingredients with higher profit margins, but its sad because I used to like this place. I hope the owners put a little more care and love into the ingredients and make them healthier. Whats wrong with using butter like real french bakeries. They NEVER use soybean oil or palm oil. read more

the pastries here are pretty good, especially the croissants. but the service can be a bit slow sometimes and they run out of items early in the day. overall it's a decent bakery if you're in the area read more

Still same delicious pastries and sandwiches! Soooooo good! Had the fresh apple pie-insanely delicious with just right amount of sweetness and tart! read more

We bought a raspberry pie. The filling tasted like raspberry preserves from a jar. The crust was 14 inch thick and not much flavor. Would not recommend buying pie. read more

There is nothing French about this place. Good food, but you have to get it fresh. They tend to let the pastries sit out too long and get hard. When food is fresh, I highly recommend, but too many times I get stale cake. Not ok. Also staff is rude. But if u make a special order and make sure it's fresh, it's very good read more

Always fresh and tasty! Professional and quick service and people there are always very nice to me! read more

Popped in for the first time with a friend that was putting together holiday baskets for clients. I'm so happy she did, I would have never found this place on my own. It's teeny tiny store front that is adjacent to a liquor store with a funny name... My friend bought a few trays of amazing cookies and pastries that would be the centerpiece at any holiday gathering (as if we were "allowed" to have holiday gatherings in 2020. But hey, they are freezable right? I purchased the Nutella Napol pastry which was a great bargain for $2.50. It's enough for 2 adults. you could divide it into quarters to be modest, then go back for a second helping if you don't want to be glutenous... actually glutenous would be more apt if you ate the whole thing... which is totally plausible. That's why they have a smaller single serving size for those without self control. I prefer to take a little piece and go back for seconds. But to each their own. (see what pronoun I used there? so PC) I also bought a package of mixed apricot and raspberry pastry that will be great with coffee or tea. Again, the goal is not intensionally or unintentionally eat them all in one sitting. They are little two bites of perfectly light and airy crunchy pastry with a sweet tart swath of jam, sprinkled with powdered sugar. AND! If your attempts with cookie cutters and royal icing turn you into a Grinch this holiday season, they offer a colorful assortment of decorated cookies that are good for eating or display. I'll definitely come back again! read more

Amazing store. Delicious foods. Great customer service. Everything was perfect. And the liquor store next door had a great selection also

Always a pleasure, the pastries, lovely staff and vibe. Dubai chocolate is really good

This is the pumpkin pie that we ordered from this bakery for Thanksgiving. It was all crust with a 1/8 inch layer of pumpkin pie filling. Obviously not edible and we figured that the bakery would want to make it right. Not so. When we went in to get a refund, showing them the pies the next day, they asked us what was wrong it it, and attempted to refuse a refund. We pushed back and they finally issued the refund but yelled at us that we not return. No problem. Just giving other customers a heads up on this pace. read more

Great place to get fresh pastry's and things of that sort. The staff is always incredibly welcoming and very respectful. One thing I can guarantee is that you'll always be treated well no matter the occasion. The workers will always brighten up your day. The parking for the most part is always available even though there are few. One recommendation I do have is that you try out the chocolate ponchik absolutely to die for! French Bakery is great all around, you couldn't complain even if you wanted too. Will definitely be a returning customer. read more

Purchased a box of Apricot Roll Cookies, from Royal Fresh on Sherman Way. It literally has a tiny drop of Apricot filling and it's all dough. Very frustrating that they cheat their customers in this manner.. Never buying their brand again. Go to Porto's or any Non Armenian bakery and you will get your moneys worth. read more

Stopped for some cookies for Mother's Day, and they had a nice selection. Excited to see how my aunt likes them but we like them a lot. Tasty, but not too sweet, treats. The manager inside was very kind, too! -2 stars for the guys smoking in front of the entrance that very clearly has a "No mask, No entrance" sign, and then not wearing masks. I hope they consider how this reflects on the business. read more

I stopped in on Thursday morning, January 16th and I purchased: What I thought was a beef filled boereg, 2 tiramisu cakes, 2 napoleons, 2 creme horns, & 2 fruit tarts. The Khachapuri/Boereg was cheese (no meat), it was cold, hard & stale. The desserts were fresh, but $1 -$1.25 more than where I regularly stop. There wasn't much selection & the offerings are typical of every other Armenian bakery. They had croissants but no brioche. I was not impressed & I will not go back read more

Cheaping out on some jam? It's a shame to only put a dab of yellow jam coloring on each end of it to give the illusion of apricot cookies but in reality you open it up inside is empty and just rolls of dough. Needless to say it went straight into the trash. Stay away from this place! read more

Hi. Stale pastries and expired products. I got a couple items because we walked in and it seemed like they've been pretty slow. Do just a couple things. But looking around at the options, many just looked'old'. A package of rose water we bought, I later noticed that it expired over 1 year ago. I'd rather a small selection that's fresh from a bakery than a larger section of stale things. Thanks very much for not even trying. read more

I went there couple weeks ago. The cashier is very nice. They have a sign No Mask No Entry. I had my mask on of course. I had few questions for the cashier who's was very sweet and had her mask on. She went inside to ask the boss and he came out with no mask and didn't care. I did point it out the mask to the cashier but she shrugged her shoulders. If you don't care about your customers I am definitely not ever coming back. read more

I was here 6 am. The woman was very friendly Cheese and pineapple croissants were discounted due to them not being fresh We loved the pastries, the fruit tarts, and the macaroons. That early parking was no problem I will be back this week to take stuff for my work read more

The eclairs...let me tell you.... AMAZING! They were, soft and creamy but super light! I wished I would of got 10 of those, instead of the macaroons. I wish they had more flavors of the macaroons but they were good. The cakes are a little to dry for my taste but not the worst I have tasted and I only tried one cake, so I don't know if the others ones are better. Highly recommended the eclairs, top is covered with chocolate.... I would show a picture but I ate them lol. Enjoy! read more

Some of the reviews on here are really funny! I can't believe how horrible some people can be about a business and then how defensive others are about the horrible reviews. Le Bon Patissier is an A-OK French bakery. I picked up some pastries and croissants for a 'brunch' I was doing at my daughter's school and the selection is a bit small, but there's enough to choose from. The croissants were okay. Nothing I would be eager to drive back here and get, but they worked. I think they aren't buttery and flaky enough for my personal taste. They had a few items that were filled with Nutella or incorporated Nutella and of course, I couldn't leave without getting a few of those. The cookies with Nutella weren't great, the waffle thing with Nutella was great, and then I had some sort of philo pastry desert that had Nutella among other things layered. The woman described this as a 'crunchy cake' and it looked really pretty, but basically tasted like baklava with Nutella inserted into it was okay. I wouldn't get that again though. I wouldn't say it was crunchy either. Maybe crispy? The place smells wonderful from the outside and in. It's a very very small bakery so you basically go there to take out the items you purchased. There's two parking spots out front with a couple of tables with mismatched chairs, but do you really want to sit there and inhale Foothill Blvd. traffic? The building is shared with a liquor store that is kept very neat and tidy. (I only know as my son needed to use the bathroom so we had to use the liquor store bathroom. Note: Avoid the liquor store bathroom) Nothing is making me feel like I need to go back, but I would if I needed some French (or French/Armenian) pastries. read more

The best bakery in la Crescenta. We love everything here. Definitely try the napaleon from this bakery they have it with cream and nutella. Its a must. The staff is very very friendly and always greet you with a smile. read more

I look forward to a delicious croissant breakfast sandwich from Jaconde Bakery in La Crescenta on the weekends but since they sold out early a couple of weeks ago, my hubby stopped by the French Bakery, which is what the sign outside says, but according to the address listed, the actual name is of the place is Le Bon Patissier. Anyways, hubby picked up 2 ham and cheese croissant sandwiches which, were so salty, greasy, with some cheap, sticky gross cheese on them I found to be inedible! When I went back with the sandwich to let them know, the lady at the counter didn't offer me anything else, but just rambled on about how everyone else loves it! Talk about adding insult to injury! We won't be back! read more

Great place to get your bread and pastries. A real French Bakery. The staff is always friendly and welcoming. I like this place better than Portos. read more

First and foremost, I don't know why people gave such horrible ratings. THIS PLACE IS A GEM IN THE ROUGH. I've had the pleasure of trying "NEOPOLITAN" cake through a friend. It's not really a cake, but more like croissant-like flaky layers of goodness with creme in between and drove all the way from Santa Clarita to snag me a box. Whether it's a cake, pastry, or bagel, it is a MUST TRY. Not only are their pastries good but more so the son's father whom runs the shop from time to time, the man himself Mr. "Van-noosch" (excuse my pronunciation. He doesn't speak English well, but does speak Farsi and Russian. I spoke with him with my broken Russian and asked me to come before 6pm sometimes to teach him English lessons. What a sweet man. If you want some carbs and treat yourself to some pastries, come to this family owned business instead of Ralphs, Vons, or other hipstery shops, you won't regret it. The cake itself was $18.00 dollars and eclair was over two dollars but when I looked at the receipt, he charged me $20 flat. I wasn't interested in the discount, but the heart behind the counter. Love the father, love their pastries, love Le Bon. read more

Service is great. Always 5/5. My wife and I love their almond toast. On a good day the flavor is 5/5. When it's not a good day though it's a 3/5. Although we are all about supporting local businesses, they the lack consistency in the quality of their food. No matter how much we want to support the friendly owner, it's hard to make it a routine to visit when there's no guarantee that the food will always be good. We understand it's hard to always keep things fresh at a bakery, but if they can make manage to improve their consistency, it should help them grow and capture loyal customers. Good luck! read more

Very nice I have been going here since I was a kid! I used to get extra cookies !!!!!

My absolute favorite place to get Nazooks and mini macaroons. Open late which is fun!

I went to this bakery for the first time today, and I'll definitely return. I parked right in front of the store, and a kind older man helped us. He didn't speak English well, but pointed to the cakes in the refrigerator, so we bought those. I also couldn't resist the apricot pastry cookies, so I got that too. We had enough to feed a whole bunch of people, but it only cost $11. I studied in France in college, and these desserts were the real deal, especially the apricot ones. I highly recommend this. Besides, it's across the street from another fave, Ce Fiore. read more

Got cookies and some cakes by the slice, all ended up tasting quite stale. I have given this place a chance at least five times. With all the choices in the area, I'd hope they'd step it up with customer service. I know its cultural, but the staff gives you the feeling like you're bothering them. No one ever can smile. read more

First and last time. Chocolate eclair was hard, dry, crumbly and had a plastic texture. Chocolate was hard. If a "French" bakery can't manage to make an edible eclair, or pull really old ones, they shouldn't be in business. Awful!! read more
